The When Are You Reading? Challenge is being hosted again by Sam at Taking on a World of Words. It involves reading a book predominantly set in (or written in) each of twelve time periods. You can see how I got on with the 2021 challenge here.
My provisional list for the 2022 challenge is below. I’ve deliberately tried to choose, where I can, books that have been in my TBR pile for way too long. Links from the title will take you to the book description on Goodreads or, once I’ve read them, to my review.
If you love historical fiction but often find yourself sticking to one or two favourite time periods, or if you’re keen to read more historical fiction in 2022, why not join me and sign up?

Sounds like you have some really interesting reading ahead of you. Not sure I could do this one, but I’ll think about it!

Some of the books on my list must feel as if they’ve being sitting unread as long as the period they’re set in!
